Ripple Price Decline

There was a recovery initiated from the $2.15 swing low in Ripple price against the US Dollar. The price recovered above the $2.30 level and the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the last decline from the $3.35 high to $2.15 low. However, the upside recovery was limited and the price was not able to move above $2.80. There was also no proper close above the 100 hourly simple moving average, which is currently at $2.75.

Moreover, the price failed to break the 50% Fib retracement level of the last decline from the $3.35 high to $2.15 low. There was a fresh downside wave initiated from the $2.80 swing high. During the downside, there was a break below a connecting bullish trend line with support at $2.70 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. The pair is now struggling to recover and is currently below $2.60 and the 100 hourly SMA.

On the upside, there is a major bearish trend line forming with resistance at $2.75 on the same chart. If the pair corrects higher, it could face sellers near $2.75-2.80. On the downside, it seems like the pair may decline and test the $2.40 support.

Exchange thousands of tokens with newly launched Changelly DeFi Swap 4427

As so-called decentralized finance (DeFi) applications boomed in the summer of 2020, the market has pivoted toward a new direction. DeFi makes financial products and services available to everyone who has access to the internet. Moreover, it helps eliminate third-party involvement in people’s businesses and private lives by creating fully secure and anonymous financial services. Next, DeFi empowers users to truly own their funds and utilize various tools to lend, borrow, stake, earn interest and more.

We are thrilled to announce that we are taking the first step toward introducing DeFi possibilities to our users with Changelly DeFi Swap powered by Yet Another DeFi.

Yet Another DeFi is a decentralized exchange (DEX) aggregator that encompasses all the advantages of DeFi and optimizes transaction costs. The Smart Router by YAD finds the best way for a swap among different liquidity providers and suggests the most beneficial split to proceed with the transaction.

What does this integration mean to our users?

  • 1,000+ available tokens
  • Best rates via DeFi
  • Lower transaction costs compared to industry leaders.

At present, any user can swap various Ethereum-based assets with just a few clicks. However, many more chains will become available in the near future, including BNB Chain, Solana, Fantom, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, Tron and others.

The Changelly team is committed to the goal of becoming the leading CEX and DEX aggregator on the market. We believe our seven-year experience of working with CEXs combined with limitless opportunities of DEXs will make it possible to provide even better rates and lower fees to our users. With the integration of DEXs, we get one step closer to enabling seamless anything-to-anything swaps, regardless of blockchain, wallet connector, etc.

ARC Unveils REACTOR, a Groundbreaking Software and Smart Contract Coding Graphic User Interface (GUI) in V1.2 With Developer Portal and Tutorial 5211

ARC officially moved ARC Reactor to V1.2 which allows developers to ingest any code from any EVM chain, and instantly display the code as a functional and editable diagram. Developers can immediately visually audit the code, with all exceptions and dependencies brought to light as well as how each module interacts with each other.

From there, the software developer can edit, add and build code functions, collaborate with other developers, test the code and ship it to any EVM chain.

In the following tutorial in the developer portal, smart-contract developers can follow a simple 8-step process which takes a total of 30 minutes of development time. This tutorial and video demonstrates how to ingest, audit, edit, test and ship a robust project like PancakeSwap from Binance BNB Chain to Polygon chain: https://reactor-docs.arc.market/category/tutorial

ARC Reactor’s objective is to create the new GUI terminal for creating, auditing, building, maintaining, collaborating and shipping of all smart contracts and code. While the team has initially chosen to focus on the burgeoning EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) ecosystem first, their roadmap includes other all significant languages and ecosystems including Solana, Cosmos, PolkaDot, Hedera, Java, Python, Ruby, React and more.

The team’s vision is that, in a few years, the vast majority of software developers in startups and corporations will use ARC Reactor as the de facto tool for developing and maintaining all codebases.

Henry Syahputra (CTO and technical co-founder of ARC) originally conceived of Reactor in 2018, inspired by the simple question: “What if all software development was a visual process, completely transparent and interactive? What could change?”

ARC Reactor presents a paradigm shift, allowing any code to be ingested immediately, ranging from open source libraries and existing solutions, right through to existing code within a corporation or startup. The software developer gains instant insight into every aspect of the architecture and code, including potential malware, exceptions, broken dependencies and more. Furthermore, the display of the code visually offers a nuanced and different perspective of the code, which recently led ARC Reactor to help one of the leading no code startups in WEB3 to identify a critical flaw in its architecture.

Beyond this initial perspective, the software developer can dive deeper and see all the logic in the smart contracts and code displayed visually and alter that code, as well as add functions.

From that point, the software engineer can test the code they want to ship and deploy it to any chain they choose.

Since Syahputra initially conceived of Reactor in 2018, his published paper has been cited numerous times, including by the Portuguese government for their Digital Identity solution in collaboration with WallID: https://scholar.google.com/scholar?cites=7580646348223569168&as_sdt=2005&sciodt=0,5&hl=en

ARC is specifically focusing on reaching out to L1 and L2 chain partners, who they feel can effect the greatest change by significantly helping them and projects in their ecosystem to:

  • lower barriers of entry, 
  • shorten development cycles, 
  • onboard software engineers faster,
  • build more robust and secure solutions,
  • lower costs and environmental impact,
  • collaborate,
  • audit,
  • ship cross-chain

ARC anticipates announcing more team members, advisors, partnerships, and product releases in the coming weeks. ARC has already begun discussions for its first round of equity-based financing.

For more information about this release as well as insights regarding the Reactor business model, please visit: https://arc-market.medium.com/arc-reactor-documents-and-tutorial-portal-launched-466d766005dc

About ARC:

ARC’s mission is to be the central command console for crypto.

ARC’s proprietary and unique offering starts with the ARC Reactor. Reactor’s rich design studio drastically reduces the time required to understand, audit and modify smart contracts. Users can ingest any Web3 project code, which becomes represented in a functional, editable diagram.

From there, users can audit the code, use the visual editor to modify the code, add custom fractions, maintain code and ship to any Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) chain. The ARC Reactor supports over 22 chains at present. All source code can be exported and used anywhere with zero vendor lock-in.

DigiFT and Diners Club complete redemption of the first regulatory-compliant corporate note security token 5250

DigiFT, which aims to provide regulated decentralized finance solutions on the Ethereum public blockchain, has successfully completed the issuance, secondary trading, and redemption of a corporate note security token on its decentralized exchange (‘”DEX”). To commemorate the completion of DigiFT’s inaugural listing, 100 NFTs will be minted and air-dropped to partners and various stakeholders.

The one-month note issued by Diners Club (Singapore) Private Limited (“DCS”) was fully subscribed at its initial offering on August 1st, 2022. Investors were able to trade the security token on DigiFT Security Token DEX efficiently with 80% of the transactions completed through the Automatic Market Maker (“AMM”) mechanism. Unlike a traditional exchange that relies on active market markers to complete a buy or sell order, AMM facilitates secondary market trading via smart contract liquidity pools.

Henry Zhang, CEO of DigiFT, shared, “Our token investors are the first in the world to trade real-world regulated financial assets on a public blockchain DEX. We will continue to innovate and offer more investment products for digital users in a regulatory-compliant manner.” Mr. Philip Koh of DCS shared, “The token is a significant breakthrough that leverages the benefits of blockchain to develop an alternate source of funding.”
DigiFT, founded in 2020 by Wanli Li and Henry Zhang, is striving to be the first regulated decentralized security trading exchange and is currently operating in the Monetary Authority of Singapore’s FinTech Regulatory Sandbox (“Sandbox”) as an exempt Recognised Market Operator with a Capital Markets Services licence. The blockchain-based exchange is the first decentralized finance trading platform admitted into the Sandbox. It facilitates the primary offering and secondary trading of security tokens backed by financial assets. As a result, investors can trade directly from their digital wallets after completing a know-your-client onboarding process.

DCS is a franchisee of Diners Club International Ltd., a direct banking and payment services company. The company has a large cardmember base in Singapore.
